Lots of quick early 911's and Wayne's 914/6 :albino:

One of the few hillclimbs with a DOWNHILL start :shock: heading into a tightening L/H bend at over 80mph, and then sweeping steeply uphill through several tricky corners. Extremely good spectating - a great day out with several DDK'rs playing - rhdracer, chaos and jwhillracer.

See you there! 8)

This next week-end at Prescott Hill Climb near Cheltenham. There's a large and interesting entry, but unfortunately only a couple of Porsches. It's well worth the trip if you're interested, Saturday is practice, with hopefully 3 runs each, and the event on Sunday with 2 timed runs each.
Look at www.prescott-hillclimb.com

Cheers! :drunken:

Sorry I didn't get a chance to speak on Sunday at Gurston, Nigel. I was spectating and winding up some of the others! :roll:
Your runs were very impressive - the Gurston School obviously works well. Coming out top of the class on the school day says a lot for your driving ability as well! 8)
Pity you hadn't been there on the Saturday when R L-G was there with his 964RS.
Are you competing anywhere else soon?

Cheers! :drunken:
